Well, my surgery was March 6, and I've only lost 14 lbs. After reading about some of you, now I'm really depressed. Granted, I was on the "borderline" for surgery and needed to lose 80 pounds prior to surgery, but still, this is ridiculous.

My Dr told me this was a probable side affect, so they gave me anti-nausea suppositories. Maybe you should check with your surgeon. Good luck!

Sounds like your doing ok.. I had the RNY on March 5th and havent lost but about 24 pounds.. That's only in 2 months.. And believe me.. That's a bummer...

you are just fine my doc tells me not to snack and you will loose more but thats hard. if you eat too much will you dump? i do

After looking at posts about what everyone is eating, I'm a little nervous that I'm actually eating too much! I eat about 4 oz a meal, somes a little more. I'm able to eat yogurt (lowfat, sugarfree), lowfat cheese, graham crackers, peanut butter (natural), apple sauce, broiled chicken, porkchops (broiled), potatoes (baked and mashed), some lean cuisines, spaghetti (wheat), some nuts, crackers, toast, cottage cheese, green beans, sugar free and fat free pudding. I went through clear liquids, then pureed diet and then a soft diet. Now I'm trying to eat what I can tolerate and get my 60 grams of protien in. I'm using Isopure to help with that. Don't get me wrong, I don't really eat much -- for example I had a lowfat cheese stick and 3 wheat crackers for breakfast, 3/4 of a lean cuisine for lunch and then I'll try to keep down some chicken for dinner, with possibly 1/2 a graham cracker w/PB for a snack -- so its not much, but it sounds like the rest of you are eating much less. However, I've lost 31.5 lbs since my surgery on 3/28/08, so I must be doing okay, right? Any thoughts on this from the group?
